Dealing with all the ups, downs, highs and lows of life can feel heavy and overwhelming at times. We often find ourselves feeling stuck, questioning our purpose, trying to figure out how to adult all while wearing several different hats and being expected to show up as our best selves. Some of our experiences have taken a negative toll and started to impact how we function...enters depression, anxiety, low self esteem, decreased self worth, intrusive thoughts, trust issues, unhealthy relationships, bad habits, identity issues, etc.

At TSC we honor the unique sacrifices and experiences of those who have served in the military. We understand that the transition from service to civilian life can bring challenges—whether it’s coping with trauma, adjusting to new roles, rebuilding relationships, or finding purpose beyond uniform.
Our therapists are trained in evidence-based approaches highly effective for addressing PTSD, depression, anxiety, and the invisible wounds of service. Just as importantly, we create a space of respect and understanding, where you don’t have to explain military culture—it’s already acknowledged and valued.
We also recognize that healing often extends beyond the individual. For spouses, partners, and families of service members, we provide support to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and navigate the impact of deployment and reintegration.
Whether you are an active-duty service member, veteran, or a loved one, we are here to walk alongside you with tools, compassion, and a commitment to your well-being.
